Sample award winning whiskey. Find the best burger in town. Tour the Paradise Gardens. And of course, See Rock City. Tourists and locals alike are sure to find something new to try.

"How in less than one generation did Chattanooga transform itself from America’s Dirtiest City to the Scenic City? By embracing its history, cleaning up its act, bringing art into its communities, and building some first class tourist attractions.  Surrounded by natural wonders, Chattanooga has become a mecca for hikers, bikers, and thrill seekers looking for their next adrenaline high. History buffs can explore Chattanooga’s complicated past, from the civil war to civil rights," officials said.

Over the last decade Ms. Engesath has kept busy raising two kids and two dogs in her adopted hometown of Chattanooga. To follow her exploits, visit AlexiRuth.com or connect on instagram @alexiruth.
